Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Muscade is feminine in French. While the word does derive from Latin through Medieval Latin "muscata," the feminine gender is not reliably explained by the Latin adjective "muscatus." The word "muscade" is feminine in French primarily through the regular transmission of the Romance language feminine ending "-ada/-ade" from Latin feminine forms. The etymological connection to Latin "muscata" is plausible, but attributing the gender specifically to "muscatus" being an adjective is problematic, as "muscata" likely functioned as a feminine noun or feminine form in Medieval Latin, and French retained this feminine gender through regular sound changes and gender transmission patterns from Latin to Romance languages.
